I absolutely love your mouse- the fabrics are perfect! I’ve just been catching up on the last month or reading online, and I really like all of the thrifted fabrics you’ve been using for your sewing. Makes me want to get myself to the store and start looking- I never look at thrifted pieces as fabric, but rather just as clothes- I’ll have to work on changing that. Thanks for the inspiration.

Yes, I love it, especially in the Fall/Winter. When I started thrifting I used to find so much vintage fabric in the linens/fabric sections. Now I’ve given up on those completely and just see if I can find nice fabric in the clothing. The skirt aisle in my favorite these days.

Thanks guys for the mouse love! I just love getting comments on the BLOG! Reminds me of the good old days And I can sit at the keyboard and type nice rambling responses instead trying to type them out on my tiny phone.

My Book

There’s something for everyone here—from kids to grown-ups and from beginning sewers to advanced dollmakers. Published by STC Craft, August, 2010.
